Driven by a passion for environmentally sustainable and socially conscious design, Emily has worked at Architype since 2014 and leads a portfolio of public sector Passivhaus projects. Emily helped establish and now manages Architype’s information management group, advising clients on their project and asset information requirements.

Emily has led several key projects across the housing, community and education sectors, and more recently has assisted with Architype’s newly founded Edinburgh office. Following her work to deliver a series of Passivhaus schools in Wales, she currently oversees a group of Scottish primary schools, challenging conventional classroom design with open plan, agile spaces and fully integrated community hubs.

Emily is involved in setting up and maintaining Architype’s BIM protocols, providing training and support to co-owners to ensure a structured approach to our delivery.
